Hi

Has somebody used this foil with old and long windsurfing boards? The tunning is good enough to get an stable ride?

Apart from this I heard it is quite good for low wind and heavy riders, but it also have a good wind range for lighter people?

Thanks.

Thanks. Could you tell me which board you use with the supercruiser foil?

Hi Lecum , as Stroppo says the super cruiser is a great foil. If you are prepared to invest good $ on a foil get a board more suitable to foiling. The longer the board the worse it will be for foiling and likely ruin your learning experience and you will give up. Stroppo and I started on formula boards and now use foil boards. I'm 95kg and mostly use a JP 135 with the cruiser but have a smaller board I haven't tried yet. It worked great on the formula board so if you are heavy that would be the best choice to start. Forget the long board idea, seriously. Short is good.

Hi Lecum,
I'm not sure what you mean by old and long. Are we talking about older shortboards that are 260-280cm or longboards 320-360cm?
